Maya's Dance

About this book

Inspired by an extraordinary true story, Maya's Dance is a heartbreaking and unforgettable World War II novel about survival, courage and a love that endured against impossible odds.

In a Nazi labour camp in occupied Poland, seventeen-year-old Maya Schulze has almost nothing left.

Starving, exhausted and surrounded by unimaginable cruelty, she clings to the one thing the Nazis cannot take from her: her love of dance. When Maya dances, she escapes the horrors around her—if only for a moment.

Then a guard stops to watch.

Jan is not like the others. Risking everything, he promises to protect Maya. As danger closes in, an impossible love begins to grow between them, sustained by stolen moments of hope in a world determined to destroy it.

When Jan helps Maya escape and vows to find her after the war, their future seems within reach. But fate has other plans.

Fifty years later, a life-changing revelation forces Maya to confront the past she has spent decades trying to forget. Together with journalist Kate Young, she embarks on a desperate search for the man who once saved her life—and the love she never stopped carrying in her heart.

Based on a remarkable true Holocaust story, Maya's Dance is a deeply moving tale of resilience, sacrifice, friendship and enduring love. Perfect for readers of The Tattooist of Auschwitz, The German Girl, The Nightingale and The Light After the War.

An unforgettable novel about finding hope in humanity's darkest hour—and discovering that some promises can survive a lifetime.
